  having unwisely wandered into this MIPS64 minefield a couple weeks
back, i might as well see if i can get a build.  in short:

* switch to kraj/qemumips64 branch of openembedded-core-contrib
* add that as another layer along with oe-core
* MACHINE = "qemumips64"
* bitbake a core-image-minimal

  is there anything critical i'm forgetting? what's the safest simple
image to try to build?  fetching is now underway ...
